WAIT A BIT.
BY JENNIE Z. 7. DOVE.


When Johnny came ACQUIRING,
| thought him Over-bOld,
For was but young thing,
And he no very old.
And, though | loved him well enough
| sent him on his way
With Wait bit, bide bit,
Wait a week and day ~
When Johnny passed me in the lane
And pleaded Tor a kiss,
And vowed he'd love me eyermore
For granting OF the bliss,
Although I'd liked it over-well,
ran from him away,
With -" Wait bit, bide bit,
Wait a week and a day."
When Johnny went a ranting
With Jenny, be my wife,
And vowed I never should regret,
However long my life
Although | liked it best O. all.
/ turned from him away,
With - Wait q bit, blde bit,
Wait a week and a day "
Oh. Johnny was a ninny;
He took me at my word,
And he was counting another
The next thing that | heard.
oh, what ninny was Johnny,
To mind me when ia say.
" Wait = bit, bide 4 bit,
Wait 3 week and a day."
Heigh no, I've my Johnny;
! gin him blink o my eye,
And then he fell a-raving,
For want o. my love he'd die
I ne'er could be so cruel,
So set the wedding day,
With Haste bit, nor waste r bit.
There's danger in delay

White hairs are like the sea foam
which caps the waves after . storm.
1.-The vulnerable point Of ones char
aeter is much more speedily discovered
by our interiors than by our equals.
T. An animal, when il Is sick, Graves
for solitude, whereas the human being,
on the contrary. Is only happy when
he can make his sufferings public.
Those who assert that a sorrow
sung in verse IS no longer a sorrow are
either without the gift Of poetry, or
else they do not know what it Is 70
suffer. Il would be Just as well TO as
sert that bodily torture would cause
no pain so long as one were able TO cry
out.
"Griei Is our most faithful and con-
slant friend. He always returns to US,
although he sometimes changes his
garments and sometimes even his fea-
lures. We, however, are always able
TO recognize him by his close and warm
embrace.
THE true grand dame displays
the same manners in her toilet rooms
as in her salons, and the same cour-
tesy toward her servants as toward her
guests.
The world does not forgive us
either our talents nor our successes,
nor our marriage, nor our friendships,
nor our future. The only thing which
is looked upon with indulgence is
death.
Every single action of our life
carries in its train either a reward or
punishment, however little We are
disposed to admit that such is the
case.
When for a short time one is de-
prived of pleasure, one no longer feels
the longing thereafter; and even if
she does at length knock at our door,
we open it with fear and trembling,
dreading that it may be sorrow in dis
guise.
We are martyrs to our own faults.
There is a Kind of close relation
ship between all those who are suffer
ing from some sorrow or other. II We
are in mourning, we feel somehow or
other drawn toward every black dress
we meet.
"A great misfortune suffices TO clothe
even the humblest of Gods creatures
with grandeur.
4" As long as we are young, suffering
and SORROW is like a hurricane which
robs US Of our health. As We grow
older. however, it partakes more and
more Of the nature OF a zephyr, which
merely adds one more furrow to our
wrinkled face and one more white curl
to our hair.
